The fundamentals of Christian faith are very important. When there are Christians teaching a different gospel, that creates a problem. It creates confusion on who and what God is and HOW He is. Liberal Christianity can put God's authority under question.. and His creativeness, His power, His sovereignty. Yes, God is love, but when God says something, we are to be obedient.
I sincerely believe the devil has a STRONG hold over Christians because of this.
My desire for this fast is to break that hold that is going on in CF. I have seen this as a cycle here at CF. First they're liberals, then they're atheists, then they're pagans. Not saying ALL liberal Christians do that, but I have seen it happen quite a bit here at CF. It's detrimental. My desire with this fast is to let God move in CF and remove what does not need to be here. I am not saying it should be Christians only, but I truly want God to work on and continue to raise up soldiers for His truth. There are some here who believe in the truth, but they are scared to speak it. I know this because they have PMed me and so on. My hope is for God to give them boldness in His name.
This is just partly why I want to call this fast......
J.A.I said:Christi - It isn't about that. It is about knowing and spreading the truth in God's Word... not a 'better than somebody' issue. There are too many on here spreading a false gospel and we need to stop that. We need to be truthful about God's Word and stop spreading false things about Him and His creation.
edit: I feel led not to take part in this. I've removed comments regarding things I have found disturbing in this thread. I've been made aware my posts aren't welcome, and for the sake of harmony.......J.A.I said:Christi - It isn't about that.

I also explained why I put it in the Fundamentalist forum. Because there are a lot of people spreading a false gospel that allows for the advocation of sin stating that sin is okay because God is love. The fast is in the fundamental forum because the fundamentalists stick to the fundamentals of the Bible. It may be offensive to some, but there is no room for 'free' interpretation of the Bible. I posted it there b/c we all in that forum are of like mind which is why the post is called 'Unified CF Fast'. All are welcome to fast as they'd like, but the fast has a purpose, which is stated in the thread.
